As well as free drop in sessions, see below, Computer Friendly offers a range of other courses - see the list of courses for June/July. As part of the ‘My St Albans Account’
initiative we are offering ten free places on our ‘Starting off with’
courses for people who either haven’t joined the Internet or have a new
tablet/laptop and want to learn about it from scratch.

The ‘My St
Albans Account’ initiative is funded by St Albans District Council to encourage
those who can to use the new easier way of accessing the common services on
their website. Details are on our website here.

Computer Friendly is a registered charity and a non-profit organisation staffed by unpaid volunteers supported by St Albans District Council and others. Our goal: to provide the best possible computer training using informal and friendly courses, and to provide those with little or no experience the confidence to join in the ever growing IT world.
